Creative Spaces Vol. 3 Blog Hop

Welcome to the Creative Spaces Volume 3 Blog Hop! I'm so excited to be participating in this hop. As one of the designers featured in this lovely issue published by Paper Crafts and Scrapbooking, I feel honored and privileged to be a part of this amazing group of creative people.

I am especially happy that my space has been forever preserved in this lovely printed copy as we have now moved, and I no longer have the same space. While I look forward to creating a new creative space, I'm super sad to be leaving a space that contained so much of my heart and soul.

Want to see inside my space? Here's a video you can watch either HERE on my paper crafting Youtube channel or below:

Great space Jen!I have the exact same sentiment as you, just boxed it all up and moving it to a new place. So grateful for the chance to have it shared. But also looking forward to the new opportunity to evolve another creative space :)Best of luck to you as you do the same!B-

Oh Jen, my heart goes out to you. I'm sure it was so hard to leave such an amazing space. I know your new home will bring a space that is equally amazing! Hugs to you my dear friend.jbckadams@gmail.com

I totally embrace your philosophy of keeping things you use most close by. I've taken over our dining room table and surrounding space for my craft area. In reviewing everyone's spaces, I've come to the conclusion I'm addicted to collecting rubber stamps-- To personalize my space and give it a bit of whimsy, I've gotten a photo mobile holder to hang above my craft table like a chandelier and will put items I receive from friends or sample idea card fronts onto it for what's currently going on in my creative mind. I like to be able to change things up and this is one way I can alter my small space with something playful/whimsical yet thoughtful. Hope you post a video when you finish re-creating your space at the new location :) This might actually inspire me to make a video of my space sooner rather than later :)

Thank you for opening your doors and showing us your old creative space Jen!!! You have such a practical approach to work and storage and I am sure that your new space will have even more of your stash at your fingertips. Most of my stash is out in the garage and I set myself up to work at the kitchen table ... I'm tempted to take over the garage now :)

I looked at your video and admired all your organized items, and smiled when I saw all the "other stuff" you don't use often because that's how one of my cabinets looks! Thanks for sharing and congrats!!

Forgot to leave my email address, so will repost: What great ideas to personalize your space and keep it evolving. I like the desk in the middle of your easily reachable storage systems. I'm sure you already have lots of ideas for your new space. Give us a peek at that, too! Thanks for sharing your great ideas.lucyschmidt1402(at)gmail(dot)com

Hi Jen! I love you room and I'm sure the new one will be even prettier. I hope the move went well and you are not waist deep in boxes! Thank you for the chance to win. I can't wait to see this one! Take care Jen. raeraesma (aka your biggest fan) :)

Love your craft room! It's the first one that looks like someone really works there! Nice to know that even though you purge frequently, you still have more stuff than what is artfully displayed around the room.
